From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello and welcome to my page!

My interests on Wikipedia are primarily

• Improving the quality of the exposition of articles, in particular clarifying and simplifying unnecessarily vague or convoluted paragraphs
• Improving the content of mathematical and philosophical articles

I am particularly interested in the history and interpretation of Pragmatism.
